Ninety-nine

winding roadDouble nine, 99, is how many miles I rode over this long weekend. It started off with the great 45ish miler on Saturday, followed up by a little easier 30 on Sunday and I capped it all off with a solo 28 mile ride on Monday. I felt really good during Saturday and Sundays rides, but at about mile 18 or so on Monday my legs were starting to say no more and the last 5 or so miles were just tough. I pushed through it and still managed to grab a few Strava personal achievements, 15 in total for the ride.
Today will be a much needed day of rest as thunderstorms are predicted for this afternoon. Should give me a little time to get to that Bike Loot review.
Here is a scenic photo from Mondays ride. Views like that make cycling all that much better.

  • Cycling in Aruba

    My wife and I recently went on a vacation to Aruba. Now this wasn’t our first time to the “One Happy Island” but it certainly was our first international trip during a pandemic. I could probably write a whole blog post on that alone but will possibly save that for…

  • #NewBikeDay

    I’ve been looking around for a new bike – a dedicated road bike. My TriCross has served me well transitioning from my MTB but 90% of my ride are all on the road where the versatility of the T’cross is lost. Between my two local bike shops I basically had…
